Galaxy's Edge

Let me tell you, this is the first time I've worn heels in a long while! I love wearing them, but I don't have much use for them these days. It was nice to dust these purple ones off and wear them for a little while. I almost forgot how much they add to an outfit. I think I'll need to set aside some "going out" time once a month just so I can get my fix.

This dress is gorgeous, but to sum it up in one word: sigh. I got it on a Asian website so I knew I'd have to size up. I'm a usual S/M so I figured I'd size to an XL. Unfortunately, they only had it in a M or L. So I crossed my fingers and ordered a L. The dress is even prettier in person but, of course, it's a little tight. The arm openings are super small and it's pretty tight in the chest. I'm not going to give up on it though, I think I'll use it as my "inspiration dress" to lose my last ten baby pounds. It's too cute to let go!

I hope you're having a wonderful Mother's Day! I'll be spending the day away from the computer and with my gorgeous little family. I hope to share some pictures later on in the week :)

Such a pretty dress! It looks perfect with your hair, too. Major sigh at those asian wholesale websites for having cool stuff that's always built for the teeniest of people! But it really looks great on you.

This dress is so super cute and colorful! The whole outfit is wonderfully colorful with your awesome purple heels. Don't feel too bad about the dress size. Those Asian websites have the weirdest sizing I swear. Half the time the shoulder sizes aren't big enough for me and I don't even have big shoulders. Also happy first Mother's Day! Yay!

Oh sad! That dress IS super cute. And I know what you mean about the shoes; I used to wear heels with every outfit, but now it's just for church. Becoming a mommy totally changed my view on the practicality of heels, haha!xoKristinawww.eccentricowl.com

I have a happy little life with my husband, our three-year-old daughter, and our five rescue dogs (one golden mix, four chihuahuas, two with special needs). I enjoy shopping (of course), photography, and going on trips to Disneyland :). Enjoy!
